Description

The media project amounts to an internship with Mongolia's premier television network, enabling volunteers in Mongolia to take part in many aspects of TV programme creation. Volunteers in Mongolia may be involved in creating music videos, designing sets, shooting and editing documentaries and working on the studio floor during live newscasts. Having existed for only six years, the TV channel is more than happy to have hands-on assistance from volunteers whose help with English pronunciation is greatly appreciated.

Highlights

* Love Volunteers is a not-for-profit organisation that provides fun, rewarding, safe and affordable volunteering opportunities in developing countries around the world.

* Since Love Volunteers is a not-for-profit organization, it is one of the most affordable ways to help out in a developing country while being immersed in the local culture.

* Volunteers are accommodated with a host family. 2-3 meals are provided daily.

* A one-day culture orientation and language course then follows. The morning is devoted to intensive language and cultural training, held in the capital city Ulaanbaatar. During the afternoon, the volunteer visits an ethnic minority community and participates in various cultural activities.

* In Mongolia, the volunteer working week lasts from Monday to Friday, with 25 hours typically worked in total. Weekends are free to experience in Mongolia. These include: a visit to a 'ger' (tent-house) district, hiking through Mongolia's highly distinctive landscape, watching and taking part in cultural dance, a trip to Terelj National Park (well-known for its rock formations, camels and horse-riding), as well as visits to the Gandan Monastery and Natural History Museum or Museum of Fine Arts.
